I leave all fink stuff in /sw/bin
I put all my other installed stuff under /usr/local whenever possible
I always try and leave /usr/bin alone.
My path is set to something like ...
/usr/local/bin:/sw/bin:/usr/bin
The principle being to avoid any possibility of collisions between my stuff, fink's stuff, and system stuff ...

considering whether I'd be better off putting Perl in /sw/bin instead of
/usr/bin.
Any thoughts, pro or con?
Thanks,
